The Arab as a Hor.eman.

The Arab looks very well on horseback,
though he might not altogether suit the
taste of the shires. His saddle is generally
red, packed before and behind, and
placed upon several colorcd felt saddle
cloths; the stirrup broadens cut so as to
give a wide space for the foot TO rest on
il is pointed at the corners, thereby ell
aiding the rider 10 tear the horses ribs,
even without the aid of a pointed stick or
q steel spcar-like spur which he often
pushes between his slipper and the stirrup
side. The Arab soldier, with his white
burnous iluttering behind him, his high
red saddle and saddle cloths. his knees
high and body bent forward, with his
long silver mounted gun flourishing in
the air, looks, as he gallops forward in q
cloud OF dust, the very embodiment Of
the picturesque, exultant var spirit Of
past ages, not sobered down by scientific
formulas for murder, but free to carry
out his WI bloodthirsty purposes with
as much swagger and ostentation as pos
sible. As a horseman, i believe the Arab
to have an excellent seat, but an cxecrable
hand; he loves to keep his beasts head
high in the air, and 80 he carclessly jog
giles at the bit, upon which he always
rides, until one wonders how the wretched
brute can put his feet safely down; yet he
does, somehow. -Cornhill Magazine.

Strengthening Deer In Missouri.

On Hurricane creek are two EXPERT
deer hunters, who have been bagging
deer and turkey on the Wholesale plan
since the opening Of the game season.
They came from Michigan in September.
Since tho deer season opened they have
shetland killed ~thirty-eiglIt deer and only
wounded one which they did not finally
capture. They use no dogs, but they go
through the woods stealthily and travel
but q short distance apart. They use the
Martin magazine rifle. Three times out
of five il a deer starts up before them
one of the hunters stops linn the first
shot. Failing to do this, they follow the
animal w with three or four shots in
quick succession. II the deer should
escape this fuslllade, and disappear from
sight, both hunters strike out after lin
like a streak Of creased lightning. They
20 bounding ove logs and through brusl,
like all possessed. They will run away
from an ordinary person who is not used
to Missouri thickcts and jungles as easily
as a Kansas tornado will outstrip a Mis-
souri, cyclone. Both of these hunters
have whistles. By the sound of these
whistles they telegraph to each other the
course Of the game they are pursuing
whether il is bearing to right or left, or
moving straight ahead. Nine times out
of ten they will reach the summit Of a
divide before the deer reaches the apex of
the next divide. and then they open fire
again. That deer is made of good stuff
that gets away without taking some Of
their lead with him-that rises and shows
himself anywhere within forty rods, and
these hunters say they ave wounded
only n deer since they came that they
could not capture. This one was found
a few days after il was shot, but it was
spoiled. They ship all their venison to
st. Louis parties. They realize twelve
and a half cents a pound for the saddles,
which is all they ship.-St. Louis Repub-
llcan.

They lave some very foolish customs
in Holland. such as that. for instance,
which colnpels a lady, whether alone or
accompanied by other ladies, to avoid
passing q club house Or other place OF
rendezvous for gentlemen. II a lady
must needs enter a confectionery store,
library. or other place where men natur-
ally go, and finds q gentleman or two
there. she feels compelled to retire as pre-
cipitately rs II she had seen a case Of
smallpox. The men know this, but un-
less they have finished their business they
will not retire, The lady retreats in the

The miners bows and girls have no
childhood. Hundreds Of children. from
2 TO IL years OF age. are at work at the
hard coal mines slate picking, and the
soft coal mines coke trimming and mule
driving. Hard. drudging toll Is the lot
of these little ones, all day long. in the
dust and CRIME OF the picking shed, win
ter and summer. What wonder that the
majority Of graves in the miners ceme-
terry are short ones. A stuntsl, defraud-
ed childhood. n siskly aud iniirm youth,
and a manhood old and decrpid before
its time; this Is not an uncommon expo
rience among these coal workers. 1t is
true that there is a law forbidding the
employment Of young children in col
lieries on the statute book, but the evil
dence is convincing that IL is very rarely
enforced. The poverty OF the parents
and the indifference of the employers
stand in the way. As late as 1888 there
was no compulsory school law in Penn
s~ylvania. and il there lie now it is, like
the law referred to above. almost never
enforced in the coal regions. When
work is slack the miner sends his boys TO
school. where they get all the education
they cvcr have. At other times they. as
well a their father, must work,-George

The govt has not vet become o exag-

be no doubt.
The manifestations Of American govt

In n Mexican Theatre.

One very funny custom OF the theatres
here, is their manner of keeping their re-
served seat diagram, the seats being
marked upon il by small holes, in which
are placed wooden pegs. When you buy
Q reserved seat the ticket seller removes
the peg from the hole you have selected
and gives it 10 you as your check. The
ushels know the seat il designat,s by the
length or color Of the peg. ~ SpOn as
the act drop falls every gentleman puts
on his lat. rises in his seat. and turns
about to take view Of the house through
his lorgnette. They subsequently pass
into the aisles To greet their friends, and
remain there talking until the ~prompter's
bell warns them that another act is about
to begin. Then they hurry 10 their
places and remove their hats. The ap-
pearance of a Mexican theatre between
the acts-its aisles crowded with groups
Of men talking and g~esticulating wildly
would Eau an unsophisticated American
TO think that free fights were in progress
all over the house. Very few ladies
wear hats or bonnets in the street, sub
shutting black lace mantillas instead,
and even these are dispensed with at the
theatres-the hair being deliberately
dressed-and as the majority Of the gen.
temen are in full evening dress. the APP
pearance of a Mexican audience is very
brilliant. Cor, Pittsburg Dispatch.

Low Ceilings aud High Ones.

The sanitary institute Of Great Britain
has discussed an interesting paper in
which the writer argues that ventilation,
that is, the constant change Of the at
mospherc. goes on more satisfactorily in
a room with a low ceiling Than a high
me-. The argument is, that to have the
currents Of fresh air circulating only in
the lower part of a room, leaving the mp
per portion of the air in it unaffected. a.
practically a much worse way If vcntila-
ting the room than, with the same move
ment Of the air, to cut off the upper
stagnant portion of il by a low ceiling,
for the stagnant atmospheric mass under
the high ceiling. although m~otionless,

the diffusion Of gases. fouling the fresh
currents that circulate beneath ii, while
with low rooms and high windows no

The "sandrIeh" Advertisement.

Perhaps the most obnoxious method
ever devised by dealers TO draw attention
TO their wares and their places Of business
is the walking advertisement or human
sandwich. We mean Of course the per-
ambulating biped who bears the trade
mark OF his temporary owner. Some
times hc Is thrcc-fourths transformed into
a huge shirt, colossal hat or a locomotive
barrel or is encased in billboards telling
the public where the ''boss ncckties"
may lie purchased. There are ever
worse forms Of this bid for patronage
which become veritable nuislnces and
call for police interference. To make a
human being, endowed with reason, feel.
ings and a heart in his bosom such a
''guy," and for a mere pittancc, is some
thing that requires considerable hard:
hood indeed. And no sensible business
mar believes that the silly device pays

Evolution OF Invention.

years as curiosities, are taken up by
some inventor. who fails in the attempt
% render them Of practical u.s.; tlmn a
second genius takes hold. and pruliting
by the mistakes Of the first, produces at
great cost a working machine. Then
comes the successful nun, who works
out the final practical design, and whether
making or losing a fortune. yet per-
manently benefits mankind. This curse
is excmpliiied in the address by the rcla-
ton Of the growth Of the steam engine;
and so with other inventions. The steam
boat was being developed from 1860 10
1907; the locomotive from 1902 10 1929;
the telegraph from 1929 To 1874; the sew
ing machine, with its 1000 patents, from
1890 to 1860, and the reaping machine
for se~venty-iive years, the last successful
man adding but little to the work Of his
forerunners. The rule has been that

The Antiquity of Gingerbread.

It will surprise housekeepers to learn
that our homely everyday luxury. ginger
bread, has been used since the Fourteenth
century. It was made then and sold IN
Paris. SC Monteil affirms in his Historic
des Francais.' II was then prepared
with rye meal. made into a dough, and
ginger and other spices, with sugar or
honey, were kneaded into il. It was in
troduced into England by the court Of
Henry " for their festivals and soon
brought into general use. Since then It
has retained its popularity and contribu-
ted much to the pleasures and enjoy
ments IL young and old. Agreat change,
Of course, was after awhile made in its
composition, and particularly after it was
introduced into this country. Honey,
leing more expensive than mnlasSrs. was

the most delicate dishes tickle her palate,

Nnapusactuve of rohaeoo.

There have been q great many changes
In the manufacture Of tobacco since l
began the business, forty. two years ago.
In making plug tobacco then hand power
presses were used in place Of the
hydraulic machines now in use. IL took
six men to work q screw press and near
ly twice as much work as they accom-
plished altogether is done now by Q
single man running the hydraulic press.
Where expert handicraftsmen were for
merly necessary boys and girls are now
employed; no special skill is required, the
only thing needed being attention. Now
adays theprocess through which the leaf
passes before making its appearance as
plug tobacco is very different from that
Of the olden time. To-day the leaf Is
first stemmed and run through gum roll
lers Of immense size, then laid on q rack
and put into dry houses, after which IL
is stearlcd, favored and bulked. After
remaining in huge masses for twenty
four hours it is passed through the mold
ing machines and made into plugs.
The old fashioned way was to dampen
the leaf Just as it came from the hogs
head; 1t was then stemmed and formed
into plugs all by hand. There was little
or no fiavoring, the natural taste OF the
tobacco being preferred. The introduce
ton of foreign substances began about
twenty-five years ago, and has since be-
come general, so that now all plug and
fine cut tobacco is more or less adulter-
ated. The hurley leaf, named, I believe,
after one of the pioneer growers, is now
about the only kind Of tobacco raised.
II is a larger leaf, more spongy and has
not as much nicotine as the older and
now forgotten varieties, such as the
yellow Prior" Little Frederick" and
the "orinico." The greater part of the
hurley is raised in Missouri. Kentucky
and Ohio. The use of tobacco has in
creased at q wonderful rate in recent
years, and I believe is now better than
ever before. At present the market is
suffering from overproduction, and as
q consequence the prices are lower than
they have been since the war. l was
the first tobacco manufacturer in st.
Louis, but since the fire in September
have decided to retire to private life
